The readiness is all (so be ready) despite being down sharply the S&P 500 isn't even in a true "correction", its down just shy of 7% from its highs not the 10% for full correction which is SPY =184

Companies reporting today include JPM, Citi and Wells and Intel after the bell, their results will set the tone for trading, more Industry #s , housing & retail #s this week.

But those sand fracking stocks really got fooked didn't they?

(they'll bounce sometime)

Iron Ore Seen by Citigroup Below $60 as 2015 Forecast Cut
bloomberg.com

Iron ore prices will plummet to less than $60 a metric ton next year as global supply increases and demand remains weak, according to Citigroup Inc., which slashed its quarterly forecasts for 2015 by as much as 23 percent.

*****

Iron ore lost 44 percent this year as surging supplies from BHP Billiton Ltd. (BHP) and Rio Tinto Group in Australia and Brazil’s Vale SA (VALE5) created a glut just as China’s economy slowed. The surplus will more than double next year, according to Australia & New Zealand Banking Group Ltd., which yesterday cut price forecasts through 2017. Falling ore prices are having a direct impact on Australia’s budget, Treasurer Joe Hockey said today.

“We expect renewed supply growth to once again drive the market lower in 2015, combined with further demand weakness,” Szpakowski wrote in the report, predicting the price will dip into the $50s a ton in the third quarter. “We still have a long way to go” in the bear market, he said in a phone interview.
